What, how can it be a video if it's the in-game engine?
>>321337486
I don't see the problem with this one.
>>321337824
it's prerecorded with the in game engine
>>321337797
>subtitles in game are displayed exactly where the TV's volume display shows up
I either can't hear, and half to read them. Or while I'm turning it up I miss something because I can't read them. Or it's way too loud, and I lower the volume but can't see subtitles while doing it.

Sonic Adventure 2. You can't hear half of what the characters are saying in the cutscenes and sometimes they cut each other off.

It feels lazy when a game is just a bunch of files slapped together rather than cutting everything into a chunk of raw data.
>>321338469
Well, what's the difference between that and just an in-game cinematic viewer? As long as it doesn't actually fuck up the game, I don't see a problem. You can't even argue it spoils the game, because you could just not watch them.

In defense of the use of movies; depending on how the engine itself operates it might be that the're not able to 100% recreate a cutscene using in game scripting. video files are not a great alternative, but they'll play back exactly how you want 100% of the time.
At least, that's my half assed justification. I'm more of an audio guy than a video one.
>>321337797
The original Deadly Premonition had this problem. It made the game feel even more bizarre.

Nep?
>>321338703
It's just good practice to pack data rather than having all the media in their own playable files. If one of the files got corrupted or deleted, it could mess things up.

Fuck you ND and your shit movie games. Fuck MGR also.

Fuck MGS4 for doing that. I wouldn't mind too much if it didn't change your equipped weapons every fucking time. I don't give a shit about the M4 and the Operator, fuck off Kojima.

XIII-2 did it as well. Why even have it there?
>>321341389
Star Ocean 4 did this a little but the music was godly.
>>321337347
Thats always the weirdest when the gameplay animations clearly were hand animated but the cutscene stuff is mocapped.
I'm looking at you, Tales Of.

I changed the opening of the game to the Evangelion x Dark Souls video. It fit pretty well.
